Book Description
The author looks at the question of race and prehistory and contextualises human development from its beginnings in Africa and its spread around the globe; a reappraisal of the world's first multi-genius, Imhotep; a look at the black Queens of Ethiopia, and a forcefully argued case of the origins of Christianity in ancient Egyptian religion; the most convincing area of the author's arguments rest on the medical record of the Egyptians who documented numerous ailments and their diagnoses and cures. The author presents two seperate essays on this subject which leave no doubt as to the precedence of medical science in Africa.
